I guess there most be a reasonable expectation that one is going to happen here sooner or later hence this video put out today.

What is the world coming too?

Overkill designed to keep us all terrified.

Just like all the Duck & Cover stuff from the past.

A scared electorate tends to keep the people in power in power and doesn't challenge their actions too much.

Do people really need to be told what to do in the event of a terrorist attack?

Not being funny but I was actually thinking the same thing a while back.

It could be worth learning a couple more phrases in arabic as well! Very Happy

Knowing my luck, if I started shouting that they would turn out to be gunmen looking to kill followers of Islam and I'd get shot.

You would think so RT but research tends to show that when any disaster strikes a large group of people simply 'freeze' - the ones that react are most often the ones that survive.

If this video saves but one life it would have be worth it in my opinion.

Not only that, but you have to consider the audience, and target (sorry) the lowest and slowest.

I've often thought that if it happened to me, I would try and sneak up on the bastard and slit his throat with my Swiss army knife and then use his gun to take out the rest of the nutjobs. Unfortunately, I don't wish to be detained for murder so I'll have to come up with a Plan B.

If in a group throw shoes, keys, coins, shopping followed by a concerted rush. Some will suffer, obviously but it's Hobson's Choice. The chance of survival or the absolute certainty of death. If you can run away and escape that's the best choice but if it's backs to the wall then you have to act.

Yesterday a group off Muslims foiled an Islamist gun attack on a bus when the gunmen tried to separate the bus into Muslim and non Muslim. The Muslims pin the bus have their hijabs to the non Muslims to confuse the attackers and said "you will have to kill us all or no-one of us"...

If it is a long gun then I reckon it would be safer to get closer if possible.
